My office email has STILL not been set up yet. Apparently there's some confusion going on cos
there's another Sarah Seow working in GE (!!!), but in another branch in Singapore. Go figure the probability of that happening. Then again, Sarah is a common name, and Seow a common surname. Maybe I should go find out if she's related to me...
But at least I could still access my laptop (provided to me by GE, it's a Dell Latitude I think), and was able to start on some of the tasks assigned to me, so I wasn't twiddling my thumbs the entire day :) Left at 5.45pm today, with my Assignment Leader (AL) thanking me for "being so hardworking". I sure hope that wasn't sacarsm; I'm terrible at catching such hints.
On a totally off-tangent note, I met
a super sweet Angmoh Daddy who was carrying his son on his shoulders, and held open the door to a shop for me at the same time - both when I went in and out! (No he wasn't an employee, he was there to buy something too, we just happened to have the same timing). And it wasn't that I was directly behind him so he HAD to open the door for me - I was actually quite a few steps away from the door, but he waited for me when he saw I was coming out. Felt so bad that I RAN those last few steps to the door (or rather, wobbled quickly in my heels) so that he didn't have to hold the door open for me for too long. Made me start thinking if a local guy would do the same, to go out of his way as he did to be a gentleman.
Maybe I'm morphing into a closet SPG....................
But ONLY for the character, not the skin hor.
